WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr7948

• Pattern: GFP fluorescence was observed in paired neurons situated in the head region around the posterior pharyngeal bulb. The unique morphology suggested that expression was in the AIB interneuron pair. Based on cell position, DiI staining, costaining, and morphology authors concluded that npr-9 is expressed in the AIB interneuron. No GFP fluorescence was noted in somatic gonad tissue, vulval muscle, body wall, and inner labial neurons. An identical pattern of head neuron GFP expression was noted during all larval stages (L1, L2, L3, and L4) and in hermaphrodite adults. There was no GFP expression detected in embryos.
